    Yep, I've been using one for about 18 months now. I got it from Hong Kong. It runs on 2 3v CR123A rechargeable batteries, and allegedly chucks out about 225 Lumens. I don't know if that's true or not, but it _is_ incredibly bright. The beam isn't very wide, but I used it to commute on unlit A roads in pitch darkness last winter without a problem.

    Soon to be replaced by a home made 270 lumen torch.

    HTH,
